I killed Al'Akir 10 HM in Fire spec with 572 ilvl (and a terrible gameplay), without avoiding Electrocutes and without Jugg trinket, so I guess 25HM is just about DPS.
I'll give it a shot next week

The FIRST try. Seriously.
It's going down tonight.
I seriously started thinking I'd never take that screenshot.
Video soon.

Ultraxion 10 Normal
EnjoyFUCKING FINALLY !
300 pulls after, finally Ultraxion is down, putting an end to a very, very long chapter in which the Mages were the only class unable to solo this boss. And I did not even get the mount.
Let's get a few facts straight :
1- You will need a very, very good gear. And I don't mean high ilvl, I mean high ilvl crit/mastery BiS gear. I had only 5.4k haste for this kill, and more than 19k mastery.
2- You will need all your luck. Ultraxion hits for 110k, one crit at the wrong time and you're dead. Also, all your trinkets need to proc right at the beginning, you must get at least 500k ignite and a ~10M Combustion. The vast majority of my wipes were under 10% because I didn't get enough trinket procs, so I got really luck on this kill.
3- You will need patience and lots of buffs. Ultraxion cannot be reset so be prepared to corpse run quite a few times.
How to do it :
- Fire spec is an absolute must, because you cannot tank the boss and only Fire can do damage while you're in IB.
- Spec Ice Barrier, Cold Snap, Rune of Power. Glyph Ice Block and Evocation.
- Start with an Ice Barrier on you and the spell off cooldown. Use your potion and wait. When there's 14 seconds left, start the pull sequence. Before Alter Time, use Ice Barrier to get a huge absorb.
- Right after Combustion, immediately Ice Block and wait for the full duration. Use Mirror Images and Cardboard assassin right after, use Cold Snap and a Health Potion when you lose health. Ice Block the Hour of Twilight and finish him !
GRATS! Just in time for 6.0 to make all of this stuff irrelevant!
Can't wait to see your Elegon (and other MoP boss) kill(s) at 100!
Still wondering why I play this game.
I'm a Rogue and I also made a spreadsheet for the Order Hall that is updated for BfA.
Unfortunately I didn't have time to try any solo after my Ultraxion kill. Oh well
Since the OP is now vastly outdated I'll take the time in the next days to revamp it to be 6.0.2-compatible.

Dusted off removed glyphs, updated talents and specs.
More videos coming very soon, this patch is going to be fun

Invicibility is fun
T11 (TotFW, BWD, BoT) 25 Heroic
EnjoyPatch 6.0.2 is fun.
Not much to say, even with only 1.7% Leech from Juggernaut trinket you're completely invincible, you can only get killed if you get 1shot or if you can't hit anything for too long.
T12 tonight, T13 when Spine is doable.
My soloing has been fun. Been doing it as fire. Did FL 25, Ulduar and was doing ICC25H. Gunship is crushing me..
I feel like that Jugg lifesteal trinket would help a lot because my self healing is non existant.
Moar invincibility !
Firelands 25 Heroic
Enjoy

I'm worried, it seems Blizzard nerfed the damage done to lower level creatures, possibly rendering my two latest videos obsolete.
I'll check it out ...
Edit : with my hunter (ilvl 568) I cannot even pass Wind Conclave in 25 normal ... starting to feel bad about this.
Edit2 : kind of relief, I tried Spine on 25 HC and I could get to the same point as before (that is dying to the first Blood of Deathwing explosion). Clearly we deal less damage but mobs also have less health. I'll confirm next week but we should be able to solo cata 25HC with good gear.

The only possible way I could see us doing Heroic Spine is by getting at least 9 residue in a fairly clumped area then killing a corruption and immediately getting all 9 bloods and popping the Amalg before he does Blood Corruption: Death. If you manage to get 2 BCs, you'd need Ice Block +CS Ice Block for them. No clue what to do for a third one.
Watched your videos though and man I didn't even think to use Jugg's crystal. I'm such a baddie sometimes XD

Spine 10HC downed earlier, so it's definitely possible (even with some mistakes).
Haven't considered trying 25HC yet. I'm only 568 iLvl though, so I imagine with more gear and a little bit of luck on bursting the Amalgamations down it could be possible.

Could you not use evanescence for BC: Death?
I can't confirm if it stops the debuff applying (although I don't think so), but you'll still take damage through Evanesce. Similarly, Ice Block - or the immunity if glyphed - doesn't work; if the debuff explodes you will take around ~150k damage on 10HC. Greater Invisibility damage reduction would work I guess, but unless you're being rapidly attacked at the time to keep you in combat the fight will reset.
